Emergency and First Aid Procedures:
-Inhalation:
MOVE PERSON TO FRESH AIR. IF PERSON IS NOT BREATHING, CALL 911 OR AN AMBULANCE THEN
GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION, PREFERABLY MOUTH-TO-MOUTH IF POSSIBLE. CALL A POISON
CONTROL CENTER OR DOCTOR FOR FURTHER TREATMENT ADVICE. HAVE THE PRODUCT
CONTAINER OR LABEL WITH YOU WHEN CALLING A POISON CONTROL CENTER OR DOCTOR, OR

TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON.
-Notes to Physician:
PROBABLE MUCOSAL DAMAGE MAY CONTRAINDICATE THE USE OF GASTRIC LAVAGE.
MEASURES AGAINST CIRCULATORY SHOCK, RESPIRATORY DEPRESSION, AND CONVULSIONS
MAY BE NEEDED.

HEALTH AND SAFETY PROFESSIONAL FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS FOUND IN OSHA'S
RESPIRATOR STANDARD (29 CFR 1910.134) AND ANSI'S STANDARD FOR RESPIRATORY
PROTECTION (Z88.2-1992). FOR CONCENTRATIONS ABOVE THE TLV AND/OR PEL BUT LESS THAN 10
TIMES THESE LIMITS, A NIOSH APPROVED HALF-FACEPIECE RESPIRATOR EQUIPPED WITH
APPROPRIATE CHEMICAL CARTRIDGES MAY BE USED. FOR CONCENTRATIONS GREATER THAN 10
TIMES THE TLV AND/OR PEL, CONSULT THE NIOSH RESPIRATOR DECISION LOGIC FOUND IN
PUBLICATION NO. 87-116 OR ANSI Z88.2-1992.
Glove Protection:
NEOPRENE OR NITRILE RUBBER GLOVES SHOULD BE WORN. ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH OSHA'S
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE) STANDARD FOR HAND PROTECTION, 29 CFR 1910.138.
Eye Protection:
CHEMICAL GOGGLES AND A FACE SHIELD SHOULD BE WORN. ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH OSHA'S
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE) STANDARD FOR EYE AND FACE PROTECTION, 29 CFR
